Circa Survive - Juturna
Held together by the unearthly vocals of ex-Saosin front-man Anthony Green, Circa Survive is equally aided by the stellar guitar work of Colin Frangicetto (ex-This Day Forward). Combined with the talents of an additional guitarist and rhythm section, the band’s full-length debut is a roller coaster

Raveonettes - Pretty in Black
There is only so far a band can take recording albums in one key, so the only place the Raveonettes could move was forward and with Pretty in Black, they have done a fine job in revitalising their limited sound. Their second album proper finds these Danes ditching their kitschy recording techniques
